    Apply a dark lip liner around your lips and buff along the bottom of the product with a clean makeup brush. Apply your lipstick of choice and blot your lips together. Then, continue applying and buffing the liner until you're happy with the blend.

    Hold your lip liner on its side instead of gripping it like a pencil. This way, the product creates a more diffused look instead of a defined line.

    Add in the dark color little by little, blending as you go. Start with your base shade, then a transition, then your dark color. A smokey eye takes a while to master and apply.

    Try using liquid lipsticks in stead of regular lipsticks. This should prevent most transfer.
